PictureEllen Roeber, PT, DPT,Certified MDT, Owner
After graduating in 1993 with a BS in Physical Therapy from the University of Tennessee, Ellen began practicing physical therapy at the prominent UNC Hospitals. She continued to develop her skills and expertise working in home healthcare, outpatient orthopedics, and as a contract therapist in both skilled facilities and Veterans Affairs (VA) centers.

After working with Triangle Orthopedics for five years, Ellen partnered with a local colleague in 2003 to open a practice in Durham. Having now earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of North Carolina, Ellen ventured out and began her own private practice, also located in Durham.

​Ellen was credentialed in 2001 in the McKenzie Method of Spine Care (mckenziemdt.org), and she currently serves her professional association at the state level (NCPTA) as a member of the legislative and reimbursement committees. Ellen is a presenter at NCPTA chapter meetings and is a guest lecturer for universities around the state. In the summer of 2010, Ellen joined as adjunct faculty at UNC Chapel Hill where she teaches courses in the physical therapy program.
